To all whom it may concern. 1 I Be 1t known thatwe, tlosnrn Flinn and l lAnnYfBosnNrnLn, (jlillZBIlS of the United States, residing at Clevelandyin the county of Cnyahogaancl State of Ohio, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in .ClotlnC/utting andPattern-lvlarle.

in Machines. of whichthe following is a s 'iecifi cation.

This invention relates to .cloth cutting 1 andpat tern marking machines, and hasfor f itsmaln ob ect to provide a cloth cutting ma hinefwhich will mark a pattern like the design being cut.

vide a cloth cutting machine,having in combination with the cutting knife a'needle for perforating paper to marka design.

A further object ofthe invention is to provide acloth cutting and perforating machine, which will ink the perforations to more distinctly mark the pattern.

/Vith theabove and other objects in view, the invention will be hereinafter fully de scribed as illustrated in the accompanying drawings, and the novel features thereof will be distinctly pointed out in the appended claims. g

In the drawings similar characters of reference are used to designate-corresponding parts.

Figure 1 is a side elevation of a cloth cutting and pattern marking machine constructed in accordance with our invention, Fig. 2 1s a front elevation of the machine, Fig. 3 is an enlarged View illustrating the basev portion of the machine with the cutting knife in its down position,

'Fig. 1 is a sectional View taken on line 4t4 of'Fig. 3, and v Fig. 5 is a similar View taken on line 55 of Fig. 3. a

Referring to the drawings 1 represents a base supported'by ,rollers 2 and having aninclined forward end. Fixed to sa d base is an rip-right 3, which supports a platform 4 carrying an electric motor 5 having a shaft A. liosnn Another object ofthe inventiontis to proand in thishead is slidably mounted alv ertical barll, which. s reciprocated by the motor 5, and carries a cutting knife 12. The bar-.11 1s adJustably connected at 18 to a head 141, which is eccentrically pivotedat 15 to a. flange 16 fixed to the motor shaft 6. An

ordinary pressure foot 17 is adjustablysup v ported 1n the head 10 by means of a set screw 18.- y

The cutting knife 12- is slidably mounted in a guide-way. 19;of the up-right 3, its rear edge being enlarged at 20 for this purpose. The forward edge of the cutting knife 12 recessed at 22 thereby leavinga forward p0rt1on23,and a. rear portlon 2e whichis sharp, and'extendedbelow its lower end isa needle 21 for. perforating paper. to mark a pattern. 'The lower end of'the knife 12 is 7 O the samedimension as the needle 21 and formlng a part thereof. -S2L1Cl forward porv tion .23 of the cutting knife 12 is adapted to pass through a slotted opening 25 of the base 1 and the rear portion 24 of thecutting knife and the needle 21 through an aperture 7 26 of said base. The solid part 27 of the base projects thereabove. In order that the perforations made through the sheets of pa per as 28 may be more distinct, ink from'a suitable reservoir 29 supported upon the platform. 4 isdirected to theneedle 21 by means of a tube 30 having a closed end 31, and provided with vertical aliningopenings at 32, through which said needle passes. The flow of the ink may be regulated or entirely shut off at 33 of the reservoir in the ordinary manner.

In practice,the sheets of paper 28 to be marked as patterns are laid upon a table and the base 1 of the machine placed upon said sheets of paper; and between the same and the stack of cloth as 34 to be out, The flow ofthe ink is regulated, and the operator pushes and guides the machine by means of the handle 7, to out the cloth according to a certain pattern as is the usual custom. At

' the same time that the cloth 3e is being cut by'the reciprocating knife 12, the needle 21. is perforating the sheets of paper 28, and as the needle passes through the openings at32 of the tube 30, it carries ink to the perforations made in the sheets of paper thereby marking the same withfthe exact pattern being cut. The sheets ofwpaper 28 now having a pattern thereon may in turn be used as a pattern for cutting cloth. This saves the time of laying'out a pattern.

Having fully described our inventlon, What e claim is: 1

1. In a pattern marking machine, the

combination of a needle for making perforations to mark a design, means for recip- V rocating the needle, a reservoir for a marking-fluid, a tube leading from the reservoir,
